Moon Phased: The Triple Claim novel Chapter 175

Chapter 92-2

As I neared the Jacobs’s residence, my wolf slowed, before coming to a halt, hidden within the tree line coverage, while an indifferent scent filled the surrounding air, sending my wolf into defensive mode. Nothing seemed to look out of the ordinary, but as I slowly made my way around to the other side of the house, still hidden within the shadows of the forest, I saw an unfamiliar car parked in the driveway.

I had been at the Jacobs’s home about just as much as I had been at my own, and never had I seen this car before in my life, making me wonder who the hell it belonged to. Slowly, I crept my way around to the side of the house to the back door, where I was used to sneaking in to see Jessica at all hours of the night. But as I moved to that side of the house, I spotted movement within the house through an open window, making me hold my position to where I

stood.

My eyes strained to see who was inside the house through the sheer curtains that were blowing inwards with the night’s breeze, but as I tried to focus on the dark silhouettes within the house, a male’s voice came into tune, making me focus all my strength on my ability to hear what he was saying.

“We must stick to our initial plan. We have invested too many years in it to abandon ship.”

“But she has only secured one of the three brothers, which isn’t enough to gain the power

of the pack. We have to have at least two to win the majority vote, and right now Carla’s daughter has the other two wrapped around her finger, just like Carla had their father and uncle all those years ago.” A woman’s voice that was undoubtedly Mrs. Jacobs’s voice said, making me realize that she indeed knew what happened, because she was obviously a part of it, just like she was a part of it now.

“Don’t worry about Carla’s daughter. I’m sure she won’t make it far past her eighteenth birthday, if my brothers have anything to do with it. They have already eliminated Ms. Wilson, and now the only loose end left of the Wilson family is her. They undoubtedly will focus their full efforts on her, where my efforts are going to be focused on securing the pack through our daughter.”

“Daughter?” I whispered under my breath, not believing my ears. All this time, I thought that Jessica’s father had died alongside my mother, but now I am finding out that wasn’t the truth. I had to wonder if Jessica knew this herself, or if she too was just a pawn being played just like me in their game.

“Unfortunately, ever since the attack at school, Chase has been missing in action, and Jessica has no clue where he has been.” Mrs. Jacobs tells the man, who leaves out a growl of frustration, realizing that his little game might just be falling apart, and you can sure the

hell believe that it was, now that I know the truth.

“Then maybe it’s time for another attack, but this time, one that draws him back in.”

A gasp came from Mrs. Jacobs, before I heard her say, “You wouldn’t dare. She’s your daughter.”

“The two of you have left me no other choice. If we don’t secure her position, then we will all be bowing a knee to one of my brothers, and I would die before I allowed that to happen. Plus, I will make sure that it is only a flesh wound, one that will heal before her coronation as

Luna.”

“Fine. When are you proposing?” She then asked him, and the man was quick to say,” Tomorrow right after school. I want as many eyes as possible to see the attack. Chase will have no other choice but to rush back to Jessica’s side to protect her and keep her safe.”

Headlights at that moment beamed up the lane to the house, and I took a step back, further into the shadows, as I feared I would be exposed by the bright lights now beaming in my direction. But as I took a step back, a stick beneath my paw cracked, making Mrs. Jacobs and her male friend bring their conversation to a halt, as one of the silhouettes moves

towards the window.

I had two options at that moment, and the one I knew would get me caught, so instead I did what I always do best. There was no need for me to make a stance tonight, as I knew what their plan was for tomorrow, and my ass planned on being at the school, waiting in the

shadows for them to make their move.
